We might want to make the most of Karen Clifton on this year's Strictly Come Dancing as she's hinted it could be her last.

The Strictly pro married her fellow dancer Kevin Clifton last year in Westminster after he proposed to her during the stage show of Burn the Floor in April 2013, and now she's told The Sun that she might have to leave to show to have children.

"Kevin and I are hoping to have a family pretty soon so that'll mean I'm going to be out of the show in the near future," she explained. "But we absolutely love Strictly. I want at least two kids and a dog and a big house and a bird. Two kids will keep me busy."

But before those two kids think about stepping onto the dancefloor, Karen has got other ideas. "They're not going to be dancers; I want them to be a vet and a dentist. Dancing is too hard a career."

Kevin added that it would be "a lovely thing" for the couple to start a family, which he admitted that Karen has spoken about "quite a bit".

"The producers have been trying for years to get one of them to win #fact," he tweeted during the launch show. The BBC has denied those claims and called them "complete and utter rubbish".

Melvin Odoom has also had to speak out against fix claims as rumours surfaced that the BBC had covered up his secret past as a street dance teacher, but he told us that he doesn't think he's got any advantage.

The talking stops and the dancing starts this Friday (September 23) at 9pm on BBC One. Bring it on.
